EDMODO: Social Learning for Classrooms

Here is a list of resources and information I've collected or produced myself relating to Edmodo.

Information, Reviews, What is Edmodo?

• Edmodo - Social Learning for Schools: a blog post I wrote myself after my first 5 weeks of using Edmodo with some of my classes
• Social Networking Power with Edmodo in the Classroom: this blog post by an ed tech provides a great overview of some of Edmodo's best features and ways it can enhance teaching and learning in the classroom.
• Using Edmodo in the Classroom - Five Days Later: in this blog post a teacher shares his positive experiences of using Edmodo with his students.

Resources for Teachers

• The Edmodo Guide: help for teachers new to Edmodo on how it works and detailed help with every feature.
• Online Learning Tools letter: a letter I have used for parents of my students to introduce Edmodo and social networking tools in the classroom and obtain parental consent.

Resources for Students

• I created the slideshow below as a basic "quick-start guide" for my students to help them get started with Edmodo. It can also be a great resource for them to refer back to in the early days. With my students I went through it with them briefly together, and then they logged onto Edmodo and I had the presentation embedded in a post to the class. Students "popped out" the post so that they could have it open and still do other things on Edmodo.
